Internationally renowned speakers will outline the ways and means of maintaining and promoting Cybersecurity against the growing menace of hackers and viruses at a forthcoming lecture in Auckland.

Organised by CreateOps and ‘Y-Tech,’ the event will be held from 930 am to 230 pm on Saturday, August 24, 2019 at the Manukau Campus of the Manukau Institute of Technology (MIT) located at the Corner of Manukau Station Road and Davies Avenue.
